Deprecate Uint, Uint32 etc?

[dpsanders]

I thought that with #8905 and #8907 the names Uint, Uint32 etc. would be deprecated, but that is not the case on latest master:

julia> Uint
UInt64

julia> Uint32
UInt32

julia> versioninfo()

The issue is that we do not currently have a way to deprecate types

[dpsanders]

Ah yes, thanks. But can we at least deprecate the constructor-type calls, Uint(3) etc.?

dup of #11200
Uint has to be an alias for UInt, so we can't separately deprecate the constructor.

What we really need is a mechanism for deprecated exports – i.e. exports that continue to be available, but when someone uses such a binding, a warning is emitted.
